TERMS APPLICABLE TO THE RETAILER SERVICE
- Prices of products on the Retailer Service are provided directly by Retailers and whilst We try to ensure that all prices on the Retailer Service are accurate, errors may occur for which We are not responsible.
- Once you have placed your order for a product, you will receive an email from Us acknowledging receipt of payment. However, please note that this does not constitute acceptance of your order by the Retailer. We will then provide the Retailer with details of your order, including delivery address, contact information, payment method (and any other relevant transaction information required by them). You agree that as soon as you place an order using the Retailer Service, We will send these details to the Retailer and that We are unable to accept cancellation of that order. You agree to contact the Retailer directly to cancel the order should you wish to do so and that the Retailer's terms and conditions will apply. The Retailer will confirm acceptance of your order by sending an email to your registered address to confirm dispatch of the product.
- The contract for the purchase of a product using the Retailer Service is formed directly between you and the Retailer when you accept the Retailer's terms and conditions during the purchase process and is subject to the Retailer's acceptance. Please read the Retailer's terms and conditions carefully as they contain important information about your rights.
- The Retailer will take payment from your payment card and process your order in accordance with its terms and conditions. Orders are subject to delivery restrictions imposed by Retailers as stated. Products will be dispatched and delivered by the Retailer in accordance with the delivery method selected by you. After placing your order, please contact the Retailer directly in relation to delivery.
- We hope that you are happy with any purchase made via the Retailer Service but, if not, please consult the Retailer's terms and conditions in relation to your rights regarding cancellation, returns and refunds. Any refund of the purchase price or delivery charge will be made directly by the Retailer and not by Us.
TERMS APPLICABLE ONLY TO THE DIRECT SERVICE
- Once you have placed your order with Us on the Direct Service, you will receive an email from Us acknowledging receipt of payment. Please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted. Your order constitutes an offer to Us to buy a product and all orders made via the Direct Service are subject to acceptance by Us or by our Delivery Partner (as applicable). We or Our Delivery Partner will confirm such acceptance by sending an email to you confirming your order and the contract between you and Us or between you and Our Delivery Partner will only be formed when We or the Delivery Partner send you the confirmation. We or the Delivery Partner will subsequently send you an email confirming the dispatch of the product. If for any reason We or the Delivery Partner are unable to fulfil your order, including out of stock items, We or the Delivery Partner (as relevant) will inform you immediately by email and you will receive a refund to the payment card registered on your account. We aim to process refunds within three (3) working days after the product is received by Us or as determined by Our Delivery Partner's terms and conditions.
- Unless otherwise determined by Our Delivery Partner We aim to dispatch orders as quickly as possible. Based on the delivery option selected, your order should be received within five (5) working days. A signature may be required upon receipt of your order. However, please note that indicated delivery times are merely an estimate and not a guarantee, and as such, should not be relied upon. Unfortunately, deliveries may take longer during peak periods. If you have not received your order within seven (7) working days, please email our customer care team at support@simplytap.com for assistance. Standard deliveries to Northern Ireland, the Highlands and Islands and AB postcodes will take longer to arrive. We aim to deliver within five (5) working days to Northern Ireland and seven (7) working days to the Highlands and Islands and AB postcodes. During busy periods, please allow up to seven (7) working days for deliveries to Northern Ireland and ten (10) working days for deliveries to the Highlands and Islands.
- Our selected delivery partners are listed on Our website and may be updated from time to time. An order made by you via the Direct Service may result in you having to enter into a contract with Our delivery partner and the products ordered via the Direct Service will be delivered by Our delivery partner ("Delivery Partner"). Please read the applicable Delivery Partner's terms and conditions carefully as they contain important information about your rights.
- If you are not available when a Delivery Partner first tries to deliver your order and the Delivery Partner cannot find a safe location to leave your order, they may leave a card indicating where the order can be collected from. Alternatively, the Delivery Partner may take the order to its warehouse and make two (2) further attempts to deliver the order over subsequent working days. Please follow any instructions on the delivery card left by the Delivery Partner to arrange redelivery of your order.
- You will become the owner of the product once payment has been made in full and the product is dispatched to you. Risk in the product will only pass to you on delivery which means that you will be responsible for taking reasonable care of all products in your possession following delivery.
- Under the Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations 2000 ("DSR"), you have a "cooling off" period to cancel an order made via the Direct Service. We allow you fourteen (14) days (beginning the day after receipt of the product) to cancel an order made via the Direct Service and receive a full refund, including delivery costs. Unfortunately, We cannot accept cancellation of: perishable products; financial services products; magazines; DVDs, CDs or other software where the seal is broken; or customised products. Please note: Our Delivery Partner's "cooling off" period to cancel an order made via the Direct Service may be different to Ours so please read carefully the Delivery Partner's terms and conditions.
- Unless your rights to cancel an order or return a product is governed by Our Delivery Partner's terms and conditions where you wish to cancel an order or return a product purchased via the Direct Service, you must request a Returns Merchandise Authorisation (RMA) number within fourteen (14) days of order receipt by emailing customer care at Support@simplytap.com. Please then return the unused item in its original condition within seven (7) days of receiving your RMA number for a refund. Charges may apply. We recommend that you insure the return shipment as you are under a duty to take reasonable care of the product and will be liable for damage to the product until We receive it at Our warehouse. In case of dispute, We also recommend that you consider use of recorded delivery or some other form of trackable delivery in returning the products to Us. We aim to process all refunds within three (3) working days of product receipt. A "working day" is any day except a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday.
- You have a legal obligation to take reasonable care of the product while it is in your possession. Any products returned should be unused and with all packaging provided, including but without limitation any garment tags, dust covers, tags, cables, remote controls, manuals as may be supplied with the product. Products that are returned which are damaged, seals or shrink wrap not intact or soiled may not be accepted and sent back to you and/or a refund refused.
- In the interests of hygiene, we do not offer refunds on pierced jewellery, underwear or swimwear if the hygiene seal has been removed, or cosmetic products if they have been used or the hygiene seal is broken, unless they are of unsatisfactory quality or unfit for purpose.
- Subject always to the Delivery Partner's terms and conditions if there are defects in the products you have purchased via the Direct Service, We abide by all statutory guarantee regulations. If you have a complaint regarding obvious material or manufacturing faults in products that We have supplied, including damage incurred in transit, please let Us know within seven (7) working days of product receipt by emailing star@simplytap.com. Please return the product to Us at the address communicated to you in our correspondence or provided to you by our customer care within twenty-one (21) days of receipt.
- Products may be checked on return to verify the returned product complies with either Our Delivery Partner's or Our refunds policy. Any products proven to be non-defective may be returned to you, and an inspection fee and return delivery cost may be charged. We regret that We do not offer replacements on items and you will have to reorder the item in this instance.
- If any of your products develop a fault after the fourteen (14) days "cooling off" period, but within the manufacturer's warranty period, please contact the manufacturer directly to arrange a repair or replacement. In most cases, the manufacturer will arrange a collection and repair at no extra cost to yourself, but please do check this as it can vary. Unfortunately We are unable to return products to the manufacturer on your behalf. For this reason, We recommend that you return any faulty products to the manufacturer.
- Payment
- We are only responsible for taking payment for products ordered via the Direct Service. Payments for products and services ordered via the Retailer Service will be taken by the Retailer and are subject to its terms and conditions.
- When paying for a product ordered via the Direct Service, payment will be taken from the payment card you supplied on registration (or, if you have updated your bank card details, the payment stored on your account).
- Payment for orders made via either Service will be taken from your bank card when the order is placed.
